Out the Other Ear

Harper put down the phone with a thud. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that.”Damon crossed his arms and frowned. He has noticed it since the night before. There was something different about the wolf queen. She’s acting up on something. For what reason, anyway? He has no clue.“It’s fine. Are you sure everything’s okay? You seem… stressed.”Harper was avoiding Damon’s eyes. She couldn’t help but regret her choices that night when she followed him. She let her fear took over her. If she weren’t a coward, she already knows what was behind the door that night. The howl of the wolf she heard from a distance was from Damon looking for her. Turns out one of the soldiers noticed she was gone from the common room. As soon as their king arrived, the soldier reported her disappearance. When Harper arrived the camp again, she couldn’t think quick. What she blurted out was that she tried to escape to warn Shahila about the black wolves. Shockingly, Damon bought it. Or so she thought. Damon knew sh

Safe for Now

Unlike most nights, this one didn’t scare Harper at all. Her heart was beating thrice the normal, enthusiasm feeling her system in the most unexpected way. The feeling of both excitement and worry filling her heart, she walked the woods with Damon’s cloak covering her head.She promised herself to be careful and alert. Any slight movement may be a sign of danger. It’s what she was thinking at the top of her head. When she was in the middle of the woods, with only a small torchlight to navigate her path and retrace her memories of where Damon was the night before, she only has herself to rely on. At most cases, that was enough.It was after 8 minutes that she saw the cabin in a distance. It was dark and lonely and grim. She cannot bear to be here any longer than an hour. She then thought of her Grandma having to deal with such solitude. And for how long?For weeks, that is. Damon didn’t give her the exact time when her Grandma was placed here. She can only guess it was too long. Given

A Granted Request

Damon woke up earlier than usual the next morning. He’s certain he dreamed of something, but couldn’t remember what it was. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. It was 10 am now, he overslept for the first time in very long years. As soon as Harper left his room last night, he laid down and sleep visited him like an old friend. The next minute he was in deep slumber, awakened in a different world in his dreams which now he can’t remember. He stretched his hands and neck as he opened the window. Indeed, it was broad daylight outside. The men of the camp just arrived from the forest gathering woods for cooking. The women were drying clothes under the heat of the sun. He scanned around looking for his queen but she was nowhere in sight.After a quick wash of his face, he went out to the camp grounds. Most of the white wolves greeted him. Those who were wounded from the past attack has now recovered. He was pleased to see that most of the damages from that last unfortunate event’s starting to

Back from the Dead

Damon couldn’t wait to deliver the good news. He climbed down the common room and approached Harper right after they were done hanging the clothes. He was greeted with the women, who giggled and smiled by the attention he has given them. Though it wasn’t for them directly. “So, how did it go, my king?” – Harper asked, pertaining to the talk Damon had with Anthony. She clearly had no idea it was about her. “It went well. Are you done here?”Harper took a quick glance at the clothes dripping from the clothes line. She nodded at him.Damon guided her back to the common room where the cleaning ladies were wiping each of the chairs and realized they’re not yet ready for guests. Again, he invited her to his room. There, they both sat down. Harper was puzzled on what this could be about. “O…okay. Is there something going on here?” – Harper started. Behind him, she looked at the cloak. It was still at the same place she placed it. Phew. Damon sat down on his seat and played with the fold

Moonless Night

Back at the white wolves’ camp, Harper spent the day with only counting the remaining hours before 11 in the evening. It was the time promised to her by Damon.On the other hand, Damon got his hands full with the tasks he needed to complete for the camp. He was at the training grounds, at the dungeons, at the infirmary and everywhere he felt his presence was needed.It was 7:30 pm when they both met at the common room to have dinner with the selected few. The others are free to get food and eat at the tables at the side. Only the lycan king, his queen and the other known names are allowed to be at the long center table with servers and extra cutleries. Now with Shahila exiled, there was an empty seat staring back at Harper every meal. “Don’t you think we should remove that seat, my king?” – Harper said, staring at the empty in front of her.“No need. It will only be filled up one day. By anyone, really.”Harper gulped. Just that it reminds her of Shahila and all the lies she’s told b

Cabin Secrets

As soon as their emotions calmed down and the long hug quenched their misery for each other, the two women let go and sat on the side of the bed. “This is such a surprise. I thought you won’t be back for at least a week.”“I thought so, too. Thankfully, King Damon changed his mind.”Laura smiled at Damon. She was right about him. He can be trusted and he also wanted the best for Harper. The kind he could entrust her granddaughter with.Damon gave them a soft smile. He was enjoying the sight right in front of him.“Do you need privacy?” – Damon asked“No, please. Just stay.”Harper was looking at him differently. It wasn’t how she had been looking at him before. Her eyes were sparkling with joy and something else… he recognized it at first glance but didn’t want to say what it is. “Okay. I’ll just stay here in the side.”Harper nodded. She saw how dark it was outside so she wouldn’t risk him there. Though all she really wanted that night was to talk to her grandma. She guesses she ca

The Unknown

Damon fetched Harper the next morning from her room. The door was ajar so he invited himself in. She was caught by surprise by his sudden entry. “King Damon! Were you standing there long?” – Harper askedDamon cleared his throat. What was he thinking? Of course he should’ve knocked.“I just came in… Sorry, I should’ve knocked.”Harper frowned. Was he okay? Why wasn’t he thinking straight?“Well… maybe next time.” – Harper said and grinned. Good thing was that when he entered, she was already done changing clothes. What he witnessed was the safe scene of her combing her hair in front of the mirror. “Is there something you need, my king?” She couldn’t get why he’s here in her room this early. “None. Why?”Harper bit her lips. There was really something unusual about him today. For a moment, she worried he might’ve heard the conversation she had with Laura in the cabin. But that’s impossible.Right?She cleared her throat and just to be sure, she got up and went to her closet. She

The Blacks and the Whites

Damon has something else in mind. It was a surprise.“Do you know somewhere here?” – A smirk crossed his lips. Exactly.Damon cocked his head to the side, signaling Harper to follow him. Hesitantly, she did. Thankfully, they didn’t tread through the cornfield. There was a clear path nearby, surrounded with fruitless apple trees. Perhaps it wasn’t its harvest season.Good thing was that it was a cloudy day. The sun’s nowhere to be found as it was hidden behind thick clouds. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you exactly where we’re going. It’s some kind of a secret. This place is something only me and my dad know. Even the pack doesn’t know this place. I intend to keep it that way.”Harper raised her brows. Wow. It was the first time he mentioned something about his father. She heard about him, though. Beta Simon. It was written in history books, but not in the correct manner she knows now. Perhaps because the historian’s Alpha Draco’s scribe, evidencing his manifest partiality. It’s kind of s

The Dedication

“What do you mean you were there?”Damon flinched, sensing the unbelief in Harper’s voice. It was the dire consequence of being written with malice. The historians sided with the Blacks and of course, that would give them more power to write what they want. To record history with an inclination towards them.“I know it sounds crazy. The books say otherwise, don’t they?”Harper didn’t respond. She didn’t need to. The doubt and uncertainty painted her face with a frown. “I can’t blame you if you have doubts about what I just narrated, But believe me. I was there. I was only a little tot but I was there… and I remember it all like the back of my hand. “Harper knew he deserved the benefit of the doubt. She won’t be too quick to judge. To give that privilege doesn’t amount to fully believing anyway. She can still be careful.“Actually, what you just said made sense. That’s why the whites have such irreconcilable bond with the other pack. I get it. Is that why you brought me here for? To

Trouble on the Way

Harper woke up with no clue of what just happened. When her eyes snapped open, Damon was seated on a small chair right on front of her. The bottle of potion was sealed again, placed on the side of the chair. Its cords were back with the cork and Damon was looking at her intently. She sat up with her head ringing. What happened?In silence, she recalled everything that happened since she and Damon got off the bus. They entered a mysterious and strange place which was inside a huge tree, he told her something different about their clan’s history, they walked further, the trees were all red and dancing with the wind, another door with a bed, blue potion. And then she woke up.She looked down at her skirt and noted that it was back on its proper position. “I was so worried. Do you feel okay now?” – Damon stood up and neared the bed“What happened?”“You passed out. I apologize for that. I’m sure it wasn’t serious. I know how safe the potion is for the baby.”Harper closed her eyes for a
